#instruct

Even the struggle that hurt you the most can be the very tool that God uses to instruct you, guide you, and bring you awareness of where you should work on yourself. Sometimes, it takes adversity to reveal who you are and who your people are. Other times, it takes suffering to open your eyes to the reality of who you should be. Before you let bitterness, strife, and regret find a place in your heart - let forgiveness, grace, and mercy remind you that if it was not for the efforts, energy, and even ignorance of yourself and others you wouldn't be the empowered, empathetic, and understanding person you are today.
